How to Isolate Your Bed from Bed Bugs

How to Isolate Your Bed from Bed Bugs

Step 1: Clean your Linens and BeddingArticle Pull all the bedding off your bed - sheets, mattress cover, comforter, pillows and pillow cases. These are infested with bed bugs, so you need to immediately stuff them into the trash bags and tie the bags off.

Step 2: Vacuum Your Mattress and Box Spring Clean the mattress and box spring of any bed bugs, eggs, or larvae. Vacuum the insides, making sure to get every bit of fabric, as well as the wooden frames and support.

Step 3: Clean the Bed Frame If you have a wooden bedframe, you need to disassemble it, and wash it down. If you have a metal frame, you are in luck, because these are fairly easy to clean.

Step 4: Clean and Prepare the Floor Around Your Bed When you reassemble the bed, you have to position it away from the walls and furniture, so bed bugs don't have anything to use as a bridge to reinfest your bed. Get a responsible bed bug pest control service to ease your work.
